About: I’ve had or taken care of dogs since I was 3 years old and have had several dog breeds within my lifetime. I currently have a mini poodle and she is my heart dog! I am a second grade teacher in Santa Rosa County and am looking for a way to make some extra money, meet new people, and care for and play with pets! I can stay at your house or drop in during lunch or before and after school and throughout the day on weekends. I live in an apartment on the first floor with my mini poodle Penny. We walk every morning and afternoon after I get home from teaching (around 3:30 pm), then again before bed each night. We also have a dog park that we play in. Penny loves the park! 🐾
“Carson is amazing with communication and is very reliable! This is our first time requesting Carson but it definitely won't be the last time. He is very dependable and arrived on time each day and sent pictures of our three pups both days. I look forward to him spending more time with our pups in the future.”
“Peyton is a real cat lover. She did a great job taking care of my elderly indoor kitty while I was away and also took the time to clean the home which was above and beyond! I would give over 5 stars if I could!”
About: I want to book the right dogs.. not the most dogs. I truly care about your pets like my own. I have 2 Pomskys (Pomeranian/ Huskys) who are 8 and 10 years old and still so full of life! I’ve had dogs all my life, taken care of others’ pets as a child, and grew up riding horses. I work from home and have a fenced in yard. Happy to meet and show you my home/ meet my dogs! I’ve got two sweet babies that get along with almost every dog they’ve met Let me know your needs! Will take your dogs out as often as needed. Willing to do anything else required. We can go to bay view dog beach as I am just down the street if that is something that your dog is ok with
“Poet was absolutely amazing with Bernoulli and Sunni. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and treated them like her own. She kept us updated, made us feel completely at ease, and our pups came home happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful for her and would trust her again in a heartbeat 🤍”
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life and am comfortable with pets of all kinds, ages, and personalities. Growing up around animals taught me how to read body language, build trust quickly, and provide calm, consistent care in new environments. I have hands-on experience with high-energy dogs, shy or anxious pets, seniors who need extra patience, and multi-pet households. I’m confident with feeding routines, administering basic medications, maintaining training consistency, and keeping pets mentally and physically engaged. My approach is simple: every pet gets individualized care based on their needs, not a one-size-fits-all routine. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, structure, or just quiet companionship, I adapt so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Reliability, communication, and respect for your home are just as important to me as great pet care. I treat every animal like family and every booking like a responsibility I take seriously. — Shae i’m currently working part time so ill have plenty of time to play with your pups! i’m available for boarding on weekdays and weekends after 1 pm. i have a fenced in yard and one dog to keep your fur baby company. i can easily crate your dog if needed or they are welcome to sleep with me.
“I am so grateful to have found Ashley on Rover! We trusted her with drop-in visits to give medicine to our cat twice a day, and felt very confident with her ability to take care of everything that needed to be done while we were away. Ashley was clearly comfortable with all kinds of animals, and was very nurturing towards our cat when we met. She is very responsible, trustworthy and I felt comfortable leaving our cat in her care the minute I met her. Thank you Ashley!”
“Mally did a great job watching our kitties over the holiday! She followed instructions and was even flexible when we extended our stay! We will definitely be using her services again! Thank you Mally!”

About: Hello, I am Jennie, a 43-year-old mother and wife with considerable free time. With extensive experience in caring for dogs and cats throughout my life, I possess a strong foundation in animal care. Growing up in Alabama afforded me ample opportunities to care for a multitude of animals. My expertise extends to caring for pets of all ages, from young to elderly. Recently, I cared for my Labrador for 20 years, managing her kidney issues and frequent potty breaks during her last 5 years. She also developed arthritis in her joints, making once easy maneuvers a trial without my assistance. Currently, I care for a miniature schnauzer and a black Bombay cat. I have experience with dogs ranging from Great Dane to miniature schnauzer sizes. If you have any questions feel free to ask. I would love to make your baby feel loved and comfortable in your absence. With my children in their teens, I've gained some spare time. I limit my service area to guarantee swift responses to clients facing emergencies and needing immediate assistance. I recognize the value of a regular routine for pets and the potential disruption caused by deviations from it. I ensure your pet's daily feeding and transition schedule is closely monitored. As someone who enjoys spending time outdoors, I am more than willing to take your pet on a walk or short hike if they enjoy the outdoors. My Jeep is available for transporting pets of all sizes, including larger breeds.
“Pooja is awesome! She took great care checking in on my cat while I was out of town. She always sent pictures and communicated things that went on during her visit. Definitely recommend her!”
“Julie is amazing! Our cats absolutely love her. We had the peace of mind of knowing that not only were our cats physical needs going to be met, but their emotional needs as well. Julie loved on them, played with them and brushed them. She is truly the cat whisperer!”
“Laurie is awesome! I had her come help me with our new puppy and 2 current dogs while I was at work. Only one week home and our Piper is rocking potty training and our other 2 dogs are adjusting well. I really feel like Laurie helped make this possible and alleviated so much anxiety I had about leaving our new puppy home when returning to work. She is honest, trustworthy, and great with animals. We will definitely be continuing to utilize her services for our pups!”
About: Lifelong love for animals combined with hands on veterinary experience. I’ve loved animals since I was little, grew up wanting to become a veterinarian, and have owned pets my entire life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I also worked for 3 years as a Veterinary Assistant, where I gained experience safely handling pets, recognizing changes in behavior, and helping animals feel comfortable in stressful situations. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’ll care for yours with patience, attention, and lots of love. Just like I would my own. Currently own a Orange Tabby Cat named Sammy who is the love of my life :) I’m currently a stay at home cat mom. This allows me to have open availability and flexible scheduling, so I can dedicate plenty of time to playing with, caring for, and giving attention to your pets throughout the day. When caring for pets, my top priorities are safety, trust, and making sure your pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pet and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. I will always follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medication instructions, and any specific care preferences to help keep things consistent and stress free for them.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
